Sagverk are a band from Finland that plays a mixture of black'n'roll and crust and this is a review of their 2015 album "Sahataan ne kaikki" which was released by Dead Center Productions.

A very punk influenced black metal sound starts off the album along with some angry crust style screaming vocals and d beats and at times rough yet melodic vocals can be heard in the music at times along with some guitar solos and leads and the songs also bring in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts.

At times the riffs use a decent amount of melodies and all of the musical instruments have a very powerful sound to them and on the later tracks the vocals start adding in black metal screams and the music starts going for more of a black'n'roll vibe and the songs also bring in a touch of hardcore punk at times and they close the album with a cover of Metallica's Motorbreath"..

Sagverk plays a musical style that takes a rock influenced form of black metal and mixes it with the energy of crust punk to create a sound of their own, the production sounds very professional for being a self released recording, while the lyrics are written in Finnish and cover angry themes.

In my opinion Sagverk are a very great sounding mixture of black'n'roll and crust punk and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Suo" "Pullo" and "Rotat". 8 out of 10.
